homemade liquid coffee creamer

I drink way too much coffee and I LOVE flavored coffee creamers.  But, if you turn that bottle around and look at the list of ingredients, it's kinda scary!  So, after some googling I came across this recipe and it's so great I just had to share!  The best thing about it is that you can count the number of ingredients on ONE hand! :-)

I found this recipe at the New Life on a Homestead blog and she also has several more "Make Your Own" recipes that I would like to try, so be sure to visit!

Homemade Liquid Coffee Creamer:


1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 cups non-fat milk
1 Tbsp vanilla

Blend all ingredients together well. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

I mixed mine up in a recycled spaghetti sauce jar.  I just added all of the ingredients in it, put the lid on and shook it up until it was mixed well.  And I shake it before pouring it into my coffee.  I don't even need to add any sugar to my coffee now, because the condensed milk is so sweet. ;-)

Flavor Variations:

Cappuccino: add 1 tsp almond extract and 1/2 tsp orange extract
Amaretto: add 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1 tsp almond extract

Chocolate Almond: add 1 Tbsp cocoa and 1 tsp almond extract

or you can add flavored syrups that you can find at coffee shops and some grocery stores. 

Take care and God Bless!
